  Transparent orangey, pinkish ruby colour. Nose red fruit and earthiness - hints of coffee and caramel. Forest fruits on pallate - unripened strawberry giving a touch of acidity along with the red fruitiness. Underpinned by mineralistic tertiary notes. After 30 mins of air a few oaky/vanilla notes were discernable and the previously sour finish improved.
  
  Very light and rather elegant considering the low price. Needs a bit of air to dampen the slight sour to the decently long finish - then is a rather pleasant drink.

  Meh. Not bad but I'm not going to run out and buy this by the carton. It had a slightly sour finish which was a bit off-putting.

  Very nice nose. Measured wine, citrus, mild berries, some bread, a hint of sweetness and apple. A tiny bit too sour at the end.
